The Official Super Bowl LIII thread-- NE Patriots vs LA Rams 2019

I found another casino taking a prop bet on Brady passing yards O/U at 282.5. I would take the over all day long

 

Wow, almost no angst over Beady's age this time around, Pats' O line, Pats' D, etc.?!?
If I was a Pats fan, I'd be getting nervous...T

 

Tom, have you been drinking the Max "Cliff" Kellerman kool aid?

Since Tommy Boy recovered from that ACL sprain he's been lights out.

The O line hasn't allowed a sack in the playoffs and the 3rd fewest sacks in the regular season.

I'll grant you the D line isn't anything to write home about, but the secondary - Gilmore is All Pro, the McCourty twins are strong, and undrafted rookie JC Jackson will shut down whoever he's assigned to cover (although he made have 1 or 2 OPI's).

My only concern with the Rams D line is that Suh doesn't stomp on Brady's throwing hand or Sony's ankle.

 

This guys is unreal. Maybe we should just follow him and bet what he bets

Suh was a big dud in Miami. He seems to be playing somewhat better in L.A., but that may be mainly because he's sharing the load with Aaron Donald. I still don't think he's playing as well as he did in Detroit.

 

Haven't like Max since he was doing boxing.

Seems like this year I've seen more pro-Pats ink than years past.

Saw that. Seems like a lot of late $$$ for the Rams to cover...T

 

Listening to the radio feed against NO, they claimed he's playing the best he has since he came to LA, in the last month or so. As long as he keeps it clean, I don't really care. His unsavory antics I can do without...T

He kinda looks like Gronk!

 

Except for the paycheque

 

Yeah, is that because they’re good or because of the ridiculous roughing the passer penalties that protect Tommy Boy at every turn?



Given this was the worst of the fake roughing calls, but it’s not unusual for anyone who breathes on Brady to get a 15 yard penalty. TB comes undone when he’s rushed, but nobody can hurry him anymore for fear of the absurd 15 yard auto first down penalties.

 

That coupled with the fact that the Pats O line NEVER gets called for holding.

 

It's time for me to become un-Patriotic. Go, Rams!

Most boring Super Bowl ever.....

Robb

 

I’d say

 

Worst ever game I’ve seen in a long time....I’d rather watch CNN

 

The above is what I said back on Tuesday. The man was just named Super Bowl M.V.P., after making 10 catches. I don't claim to be a great prognosticator, but I'm proud to have gotten this one right!

 

And it's the first time the Patriots won a Super Bowl by more than a touchdown. They got lucky in one regard - the two field goals Gostkowski made both just slipped inside the upright. But that was good enough.

First time I had heard that all 5 of their losses this season came to teams that missed the playoffs, which is one reason that I (and a lot of other people) had written them off. I guess that as long as Brady and Belichick are there, you can never do that.
